Yes, you can send WAP Push messages using a GSM modem. However, some mobile operators (most notably ATT USA) do not allow them.

Not all phones have GSM modem capabilities. If you need to both send and receive SMS messages, a dedicated GSM modem device is recommended. (Some example devices can be found here: http://www.nowsms.com/tag/gsm-modem)

As far as phones go, Blackberry and iPhone devices do NOT have GSM modem support. Many Android devices and most Nokia phones have send only GSM modem support.
